Tried this :

Code:
               for (i=msgtkn_20_lnno; i<msg_lnno;)
                {
                   if( msg_arr[i] ~ /^{5:{/ )
                   {
                   msg_arr[i]= gsub("{5:{", "5:", msg_arr[i]);
                   print msg_arr[i++];
                   }
                   else
                   {
                   print msg_arr[i++];
                   }
                }

Error :

Code:
awk: syntax error near line 180
awk: illegal statement near line 180

Tried below as well and got the same error

Code:
  for (i=msgtkn_20_lnno; i<msg_lnno;)
                {
                   if( msg_arr[i] ~ /^{5:{/ )
                   {
                  gsub("{5:{", "5:", msg_arr[i]); print msg_arr[i++];
                   }
                   else
                   {
                   print msg_arr[i++];
                   }
                }
